 The other day while shopping at Costco I wandered over to the video games section. There in the front was Sonic Mega Collection for fifteen dollars. I had just read a week earlier that it had been fifteen years ago that the first Sonic The Hedgehog game had come out. So I picked it up, fired up the old GameCube and played Sonic The Hedgehog for the first time in probably 13 years. Wow, did it bring back memories and I couldn’t believe how much I remembered and how fun it still was. Playing sonic makes me even more excited about Nintendos Wii coming out this fall. They say you will be able to download most of the old games for all the old Nintendos and many of the Genesis and Turbo Graphics games too. For a fee but Nintendo says it will be around five dollars a game. Sure the old school games don’t have pretty graphics like todays games but that made them make fun games to play. Today it seams like many games just look good and thats about all. Well back to Sonic. I can’t believe I used to play games that had no save points. Turn it on and finish it or go home.
